Ron Ben-Israel's Baked Apples

"When I was young I didn't like raw apples, so I made baked apples: I removed the core and filled the gap with nuts and raisins, drizzled it with honey, sprinkled on some cinnamon and baked it in a pan filled with 1/2 inch of water at 350 degrees F for 30 to 40 minutes."

Ree Drummond's Apple Grilled Cheese

"My favorite apple snack as a kid was applesauce because I was a big Brady Bunch fan and loved the way Peter Brady said 'appleshaush.' Now I like adding apple slices to a grilled cheese sandwich for a tiny bit of crunch and sweetness."

Geoffrey Zakarian's Apple Yogurt

"My kids love all the different apples at the farmers' market. One of our favorite recipes: Peel and quarter 4 Gala and 4 Golden Delicious apples, simmer in a covered pot with 2 tablespoons agave syrup and 1/2 cup water until soft, about 20 minutes, then puree. They love to mix it into their yogurt."

Melissa d'Arabian's Apple With Speculoos

"When I was growing up, I had a skating accident that knocked out my front tooth, so I could only eat apples cut up. These days I still cut them into wedges and I dip them in Biscoff Spread (speculoos, or Belgian cookie spread) — because it's the new Nutella, just like Nutella was the new peanut butter!"
